VICTORY IS IN JESUS CHRIST.


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: VICTORY IS IN JESUS CHRIST.

Many Christians are seeking victory through some teaching or some unusual experience, but victory is not in a teaching or in an experience. Victory is in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says,

"But thanks be to God who gives us the victory THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST." 1 Corinthians 15:57

CHRIST MAKES TWO OFFERS

Jesus Christ makes two offers to every person. He offers them eternal life, and He offers them victory over sin. He makes both of these offers on exactly the same basis—that we let Him do it all.

Just as there is a right way and a wrong way to seek salvation, so there is a right way and a wrong way to seek victory. The wrong way is to try to do it yourself. The right way is to let the Lord do it for you. The Lord Jesus said,

"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28

If you were working at a job, and the Lord Jesus came to you and said, "I will give you rest," what would you expect Him to do? You would expect Him to take over your job and do it while you rested. This is exactly what He wants to do for you.

Perhaps you have been trying to live the victorious life, but failing. The Lord Jesus says to you, "Let Me take over. I will live the victorious life in and through you."

Just ask the Lord Jesus to come into your life and help you to do it all. You will surely have victory in Jesus Name.

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, DESTROY EVERY BURDENS OF SINS AND ENEMY UPON US AND GIVE US VICTORY IN JESUS NAME.
